Q;

if a three-dimensional hypercube is the shadow of a 4 dimensional cube cognate, then does the entity exist inherently due to its physical shadow?

A:
If a three-dimensional hypercube is the shadow of a four dimensional cube cognate, then does the entity exist inherently due to its physical shadow?

The proposition that there exists an inherent non-physical artifact which casts a physical shape in space and time has no empirical evidence. Even if one were to assume such an object existed, it could not be observed since it cannot interfere with our own universe; thus we have only conjecture as evidence for this hypothesis.Therefore, we can conclude that the hypercube must be a physical object; it has no non-physical properties which could incorporate itself into the fabric of our universe.
Further, we can conclude that the hypercube must be a real object with mass and volume in space since it casts a shadow of itself. If there were no physical properties to the hypercuboid, its shadow would not appear as such; only empty space.
Thus, we can conclude that the hypercube is inherently physical and real; it exists in space-time as an object with inherent mass.
Therefore, the cube cognate may or may not also exist in a hyperdimensional realm; it depends on whether such a realm exists. If one assumes that there are no higher dimensions than 3, and therefore no 4 dimensional entities analogous to our own universe, then the entity does not exist; if however we
